In the bustling heart of Cairo, a work of art has emerged that unites the past and present in an exquisite display of creativity. This masterpiece, known as ORB, was unveiled at the major group exhibition ‘Forever Is Now II’ in 2022 and is the brainchild of the Spanish artist SpY.
The sculpture’s surface captures the Pyramids, the sky, and the viewers in a fragmented reflection, creating a breathtakingly beautiful effect that echoes notions of creation and rebirth in classic Egyptian culture. SpY collaborated with Parametric Designers Controlmad and Aman Agrawal to create the digital shape of the sculpture, drawing tangent circular plates and working with their coordinates using Rhino3D plugins, Grasshopper and Kangaroo. This collaboration between technology and art resulted in a stunning masterpiece that is as captivating as it is unique.
